The samurai wooden lantern has been available now for quite a while, but it recently occurred to me that I could update it slightly to make it even easier to use!
Version 2.0 features a vertical slot for the battery, instead of the horizontal slot in the old version, and this means that no print supports are required at all. Even better, you don't need an extra paper clip for the wiring of the new version, AND it's even easier to insert and remove the battery!
£ This is everything you'll need for the new version: the body and top of the lantern, a C2032 button battery and a small LED. You'll find these in super cheap LED tealights, and if you're lucky you can get one that flickers!
£ Simply slot the LED's two wires into the holes in the top.....
£ ... and then slot the battery into the bottom. It will only work one way, so if it doesn't light up, try removing the battery and turning it around.
£ That's it! You're done!
£ Writing that super-easy guide took me a couple of minutes, but actually doing it can be done in under 15 seconds!! Don't believe me? Take a look at the video below....
See? Easy!! Version 2.0 has been added to the ZIP download file for the wooden lantern, but if you've already purchased this item in the past, don't worry.... just send us a quick email, and we can send you the new version of the STL for free!
